Happy September!

Cooler weather is on the horizon so it's time to knit and crochet, my friends! I love a leisurely Sunday afternoon with a pot of chili on the stove, a football game on the television, and knitting needles in my hands. Stop in soon to see what's new!  Today's newsletter features our new arrivals from our friends at Berroco.
